It looks like Seattle might be following in the footsteps of Las Vegas.
The National Hockey League has accepted the city’s expansion application and will consider whether to formally make plans to expand to the Emerald City.
This means the NHL will allow Seattle to start a season ticket drive. If the league officially accepts the application, the expansion fee is a whopping US$650 million. (Vegas paid US$500 million for its team, which entered the NHL earlier this year.)
A Seattle franchise would be a natural rival for the Vancouver Canucks.
